LOL!!
Lane Kiffin's career highlight is a win at KC when a rookie CB blew an assignment and let the RB get outside...

Al Davis belongs in a mental institution.

Yeah, but you gotta understand Art Shell and Co. destroyed this team. In Kiffin's first year as coach they returned to borderline respectable. This season, they've had a look of a team that's respectable, and only a little time and a few players from being good. Now, it's back to square 1. IMO.

Why on earth did they fire him so quickly? I have no idea what that's all about.

Friends of mine, always ridiculed Rams for having Georgia Frontiere, a lounge singer & eccentric, as an owner. If you look around the NFL, most the owners are a bunch of egocentric eccentric kooks. They are male versions of Georgia.
The advantage to Georgia was she sort of stayed out of the football operations. I'd prefer a hands-off owner than one that plays around in the football operations too much.

I agree.
To JL, Lane had a letter of resignation on his desk in January already. Al was waiting to fire him this year so he wouldn't have to pay some sort of buyout. Lane wouldn't even go to his office because he knew he'd be fired. So he waited.
Al belongs in a mental institution.

I am not sure which franchise is in more disarray: Raiders or Rams.

Raiders.
True because Al Davis is still alive. Davis makes Phil Spector look like the picture of sanity.
